What to Expect in a Hip Pain C&P Exam | VA Disability
In this video Leah explains the process of a compensation and pension (C&P) exam for hip pain. She highlights how hip pain can be service-connected either as a primary condition (like an injury during active duty) or secondarily (due to other service-related conditions). When filing a claim for VA disability, veterans can do it alone or with legal assistance and will receive a packet detailing the exam specifics. The key component of the exam is the Disability Benefit Questionnaire (DBQ), which assesses the veteran’s hip condition, including diagnosis, onset, flare-ups, functional loss, and range of motion. Leah emphasizes the importance of understanding the DBQ and range of motion measurements, suggesting veterans view it before the exam to reduce anxiety and better prepare.

I did this 90 days ago and got 10%. Remember to move to PAIN and DON'T let them move you past that point. My Dr. had their way with me during the ROM test.

All I did was fill out the electronic form on the VA site and they scheduled an appointment. In my form, I just stated that it was secondary to my right hip issue and that it was sore when I moved/walked.
I had knee surgery in 2009 for my patella. I was walking with a limp and recently found out that I had a hip labrum tear. Could this be secondary to my knee? I had hip labrum surgery in September.

Thanks for the concerns. I gained a little weight awhile back when I had pretty serious shoulder trauma on both sides requiring surgery to both shoulders. I was pretty debilitated for about 6 months and couldn’t do many things without assistance so it really slowed me down. I’m back to normal now and have been able to get back to my normal activities and get back to running and doing martial arts which I enjoy very much.
